Uniform Classification of Electric 
Railway Accounts 


PRESCRIBED BY THE 


RAILROAD COMMISSION OF WISCONSIN. 


Mapison, July 1, 1909. 
To Wisconsin Electric Railways :— 

This circular embraces the uniform classification of accounts 
for electric railways prescribed and issued by the Railroad 
Commission under date of Januery, 1909, and the detailed text 
of instructions to accompany such classification prepared under 
the provisions of chapter 362 of the Laws of 1905 and the 
amendments thereof, known as the Railroad Rate Commission 
Law: 

Inquiry, etc., of commission, SECTION Ys. dae tite rail 
read commissicn may in its discretion prescribe a uniform sys- 
tem of rendering accounts of business transacted in Wisconsin 
by all railroads within the meaning of section 2 (including sub- 
divisions a and b) of chapter 362, laws of 1905. Said commis- 
sion may also prescribe the manner in which such accounts shall 
be kept, and the time within which such railroad shall adopt 
such system; provided that all forms of accounts which may be 
prescribed by the commission shall conform as nearly as prac- 
ticable to similar forms prescribed by federal authority. Any 
railroad within the meaning of section 2 (including subdivisions 
a and b) of chapter 362 of the laws of 1905, failing to comply 
with the provisions of this act shall be hable to the penalty pro- 
vided for in’ section 27 of chapter 362 of the laws of 1905. | 

The term ‘“‘railroad’’ defined. Section 2. a. The term 
‘‘railroad’’ as used herein shall mean and embrace all corpora- 
tions, companies, individuals, associations of individuals, their 
lessees, trustees or receivers (appointed by any court whatso- 
ever) that now, or may hereafter, own, operate, manage or 


control any railroad or part of a railroad as a common earrier 
», ‘

in this state, or cars, or other equipment used thereon, or 
bridges, terminals, or side tracks, used in connection there- 
with, whether owned by such railroad or otherwise, and also 
all street and mterurban railway companies. The term ‘‘rail- 
road’? whenever used herein shall also mean and. embrace ex- 
press companies, and telegraph companies, and all duties re- 
quired of and penalties imposed upon any railroad or any 
officer or agent thereof shall, in so far as the same are applicable, 
be required’ of and imposed upon express companies and tele- 
graph companies and their officers and agents, and the commis- 
sion shall have the power of supervision and control of express 
companies and telegraph companies to the same extent as rail- 
roads. 


It will be observed that this classification in many respects 
conforms quite closely to that prescribed for electric railways 
by the interstate commerce commission. A special effort was 
made to secure similarity wherever possible, but in a number of 
instances it was found that changes were necessary to secure 
greater detail in expenditures or to combine or eliminate ac- 
counts which had no application to Wisconsin electric railways. 
The greatest departure from the classification of the inter- 
state commerce commission is in the power accounts, those herein 
prescribed being identical with the power accounts prescribed 
for electric utilities. Where corporations are engaged in only a 
railway service, greater detail of the cost of power generation 
was deemed des#able. Where, however, corporations are en- 
gaged in both railway and electric hght and power service, the 
change in question will result in greater simplicity since but 
one group of power accounts will be required, the total cost of 
power being apportioned over the several departments on the 
basis of the benefits received. 

In the preparation of this classification conferences were had 
with the accounting committee of the Wisconsin Street and In- 
terurban Railway Association and with officers of the associa- 
tion and of individual railway systems. Co-operation and as- 
sistance were afforded by representatives of the electric utilities. 

Owing to the great difference in size of the railways it was 
found necessary to prepare three separate schedules which would 
recognize these conditions and by each following the same gen- 
eral principles would permit comparison of the operating result 
between the smallest and the largest companies. Class C sched- 
ule is the basis upon which class B and class A schedules have 


-_ 


Unirorm Accounts—Etectric RAmways. 5 


been founded, the latter two being an unfolding and refinement 
of the smallest classification. The basis of the classification is 
as follows: } 

Jlass A companies—Those having gross earnings in excess of 
$500,000 per year. 

Class B companies—Those having gross earnings less than 
$500,000 but in excess of $80,000 per year. 

Class C companies—Those having gross earnings less than 
$80,000 per year. 

Any railway in class C or class B desiring a more detailed 
classification than that prescribed for its class, should open the 
accounts prescribed for the next highest class, and any railway 
in class A requiring a more detailed system, may go into as 
much subdivision and refinement of each of the submitted ac- 
counts as its interest requires, but must not re-arrange or com- 
bine any two or more of the accounts in such a manner as to in- 
terfere with the integrity of the scheme and thus destroy the 
possibility for comparison. A copy of all additional accounts 
and the desired subdivisions of the prescribed accounts must be 
filed with the Railroad Commission before such accounts are 
opened. All records and accounts, including those which are an 
enlargement, subdivision or refinement of the prescribed ac- 
counts, are to be open at all times to the examination of this 
Commission. |

Operating Expenses are intended to include all items of expense 
necessarily incurred in being prepared to serve or in serving the pub- 
lic in the capacity of an electric railway. This includes the expense 
of maintaining intact ithe organization of the carrier, the generation 
of electric power and operation of the cars together with all processes 
necessarily incident thereto. In order that the OPERATING EXPENSES 
shall clearly reflect only the cost of rendering such public service, all 
expenses incident to the operation of any other utility service per- 
formed, or of transactions of a commercial nature, shall be excluded 
therefrom. 


Operating Expenses in the broadest significance of the term are 
divisible into two classes, viz., OPERATION and MAINTENANCE. 

Operation should be understood to mean the “use” of the property 
and includes labor, materials and supplies and expenses, but excludes 
all MAINTENANCE items. 


Maintenance should be understood to mean “upkeep,” and should 
cover all expenditures for current or ordinary repairs, renewals or 
replacements of property resulting through wear and tear, or through 
those casualties which are incidental to the nature of the operation 
and which expenditures are necessary in order to keep up the Ca- 
pacity of the railway to its original or equivalent state of efficiency. 
When, however, a complete replacement of any building or structure, 
facility or unit of equipment is made necessary regardless of such 
current expenditures, the uncurrent or extraordinary repairs, renew- 
als or replacements made necessary will be charged to the Deprecia- 
tion Reserve accumulated for that purpose. 


Unirorm Accounts—ELectric RAMmWAYS. 21 


The items includible in the above subdivisions except where some 
other meaning is clearly apparent from the language used in explain- 
ing the account shall be understood to have the following meaning: 


The Cost of Labor shall be understood to cover not only wages paid | 
for manual labor, but salaries and fees paid to persons engaged in 
clerical, engineering or supervisory occupations. 


Materials and Supplies shall be understood to cover the substances 
or matter consumed in furnishing the railway service as required or 
authorized by law and embraces not only finished and unfinished prod- 
ucts, but all expenses incurred in connection with their preparation 
for use and specifically chargeable against such products and also in- 
_ cludes a portion of the stores expenses, if such materials and supplies 
pass through the stores department. 


Hand Tools because of their liability to loss and theft and their 
rapid consumption in use are to be considered as operating supplies 
in the year in which they were purchased and charged to the account 
for the benefit of which they were purchased. 


Expenses should be understood to mean all expenditures made or 
incurred which are chargeable to the accounts referred to and which

DEPRECIATION. 


Every electric railway shall carry a proper and adequate Deprecia- 
lion Reserve to cover the full replacement of all tangible capital in 
service. There shall be opened a Depreciation Account to which shall 
be charged monthly, crediting the Depreciation Reserve, an amount 
equal to one-twelfth of the estimated annual depreciation of the tan- 
gible capital in service of the railway, or aS near that amount as the 
finances of the property will permit. Tangible capital comprises all 
land and its improvements and all interest in land the term of enjoy- 
ment of which is one year or more from the date of grant, buildings 
and structures and all equipment, facilities and apparatus used and 
useful in the operation of the railway and having an_e ex- 
pectation of life in service of more than one year. Hand and other 
small portable tools, because of their liability to loss and theft, are 
to be treated as part of the OrrrRATING EXPENSES of the year in which 
they were purchased. The estimate here required shall be made upon 
a rule designed to effect by its uniform application during the life of 
the tangible capital in service, a charge into OPERATING EXPENSEs of the 
total original cost of such capital, less its salvage or scrap value upon 
retirement. f 

- When any building, structure, machine, facility or unit of equip- 
ment which at the time of its construction or installation was clas- 

’ sified as tangible capital becomes through wear and tear economically 
irreparable, the substitute therefor, having substantially no greater 
capacity than the unit for which it was substituted, shall be charged 
against the Depreciation Reserve. 

When, however, the building, structure, machine, facility or unit 
substituted has a substantially greater capacity than that for which 
it was substituted, the cost of the substitution of one of the same 
capacity as the unit replaced shall be charged to the Depreciation Re- 
serve, and the remaining cost of the actual substitution shall be charged 
to the appropriate CONSTRUCTION AND HQuiepMEeNtT Account. The details 
of the deduction on account of Depreciation and the basis thereof will 
be called for in the annual report to the Railroad Commission.

CONTINGENCIES (EXTRAORDINARY). 


When the property of the carrier is visited by an extraordinary 
casualty of such a nature as to be beyond anticipation through the 
exercise of ordinary and reasonable prudence, and of such a nature 
as not to be contained in the provision for depreciation, as earth- 
auakes, floods, cyclones, etc., resulting in irreparable damage, there 
may be charged: to this account the original cash cost of such irre- 
parably damaged property, less the salvage or scrap value and irre- 
parable wear and tear from.use accrued thereto. When the amount of 
such damage or loss’is considerable, there may be set up an E£atra- ' 
ordinary Casualties Suspense Account, to which shall be credited ° 
monthly the amount charged to the account Contingencies (E«xtra- 
ordinary) until the total loss or damage caused by such casualty shall 
be wiped out through OPERATING EXPENSES. 

All ordinary casualties, that is, those which occur with such uni- | 
formity and frequency that the principles of insurance are applicable 
thereto, must be provided for by suitable charges to the Insurance | 
Reserve, set up and maintained for such losses, or are considered as 
included in the provision for depreciation, or constitute an item of 
current maintenance. . 


TAXES. 

This account shall cover all taxes chargeable against the electric 
railway. Where the reporting carrier is also engaged in transactions 
outside the scope of its duties as a railway, this account shall be sub- 
divided into the following two sub-accounts, to be maintained sepa- 
rately: 

a. Taxes Chargeable Against Electric Railway. 

b. Taxes Chargeable to Non-Operating Transactions. 

To each such tax account there shall be charged monthly the amount 


Unirorm AccouNnTtTs—ELeEctTric RAILWAYS. 83 


of taxes accrued during the month and such amount shall be credited 
to the account Taxes Accrued (or Prepaid Taxes, if such taxes are 
prepaid) or the appropriate subdivision of such accounts. The amount 
of taxes accrued during any month shall, when the levy is unknown, 
be estimated and when the leyy is finally determined the estimate 
shall be corrected in the provision for taxes during the remainder of 
the year. For example, if at the beginning of the tax year the taxes 
against the carrier are estimated to be $600 for the year, the monthly 
charge on account of such tax will be $50, crediting the same to the 
Taxes, Accrued Account or Prepaid Taxes, as the case may be, until 
the amount of the levy becomes definitely Known. If during the 
fifth month it is found that the levy for the year is $640 instead of 
$600, there will already have been charged for four months the $50 
per mouth, leaving $440 to be charged during the remainder of the 
year, or $55 for the fifth month and each succeeding month during the 
remainder of the year. 

Such taxes as pertain to two or more utility services, or to operat- 
ing and non-operating transactions alike, shall be apportioned with 
regard to such departments or subdivisions upon a basis which ap- 
pears reasonable and just, such basis to be eed in the annual 
report to the Railroad pee Si na
